Macron has rejected an El Mundo report claiming the CIA warned France, Spain and Italy of a Russian drone attack launched from the Mediterranean.
"The CIA did not inform the French services of such an attack."
Separately, France is preparing an emergency plan to shield critical infrastructure, energy networks, transport and defense industry sites from Russian drone and cyber attacks.
MACRON CALLS FOR A DOUBLE MORATORIUM ON STRIKES AGAINST ENERGY AND CIVILIAN INFRASTRUCTURE AND IN THE BLACK SEA TO FACILITATE GRAIN SHIPMENTS, WHILE ALSO URGING MORE AIR-DEFENSE INTERCEPTORS TO PROTECT CIVILIANS.
